D12 and I went to the airport to pick up my W. We arrived early and waited at the baggage claim. D had a bouquet of flowers waiting to greet her mom. It was nice to see W come through the gates. She looked tired and D12 ran to her. Then W walked up and barely hugged me. I turned to kiss her and she gave me a half a kiss if that's possible.
On the ride home she sat quietly with her arms folded. I sang to the songs on the radio and tried to make light conversation. Eventually she spoke about her trip.
When we got home I brought the case of wine she bought in the house. It turned out to be a party trip after all. Since she was quiet I decided to go out for a few beers.
I sat alone at the bar wondering if I should stay in this loveless M. Nothing new for me I think about this often.
